Beyond Programming
Beyond Programming provides a unique examination of the software development process. It asserts that software development, a discipline that is less than 50 years old, is still guided by methods conceived in the framework of an older technology. To make significant progress in software development, we must re-examine our fundamental principles and construct a computer science for the technology of the twenty-first century. Blum goes on to explore thehistory of software development through looking at the scientific foundations of computer technology, the perspectives of the designers themselves and the methods used. The concepts reviewed in Beyond Programming are key to understanding the research and development challenges that will confront computertechnology in the next century.

Programming with Python
Based on the latest version of the language, this book offers a self-contained, concise and coherent introduction to programming with Python. The book’s primary focus is on realistic case study applications of Python. Each practical example is accompanied by a brief explanation of the problem-terminology and concepts, followed by necessary program development in Python using its constructs, and simulated testing. Given the open and participatory nature of development, Python has a variety of incorporated data structures, which has made it difficult to present it in a coherent manner. Further, some advanced concepts (super, yield, generator, decorator, etc.) are not easy to explain. The book specially addresses these challenges; starting with a minimal subset of the core, it offers users a step-by-step guide to achieving proficiency.

Funktionale Und Applikative Programmierung
Seit vielen Jahren nimmt die funktionale und applikative Programmierung einen wesentlichen Platz unter den verschiedenen Programmierparadigmen ein. Das Hauptanliegen dieses Buches ist eine leicht verständliche Einführung in die vielschichtige Thematik. Sie reicht von den Theoretischen Grundlagen bis zu Implementierungstechniken. Schwerpunkte bei den Grundlagen sind der l-Kalkül und die kombinatorische Logik. Der Hauptteil umfasst die Vorstellung der vielschichtigen Ausprägungen in den unterschiedlichen Programmiersprachen. Bei den Implementierungstechniken wird neben klassischen Interpreter- und Compilertechniken auch ein Ausblick gegeben, wie sich derartige Programmiersprachen zukünftig auf die Entwicklung neuer Rechnerstrukturen auswirken können, die nicht mehr auf der von-Neumann-Architektur beruhen.

Object-Oriented Programming
Object-oriented programming is a popular buzzword these days. What is the reason for this popularity? Is object-oriented programming the solution to the software crisis or is it just a fad? Is it a simple evolutionary step or a radical change in software methodology? What is the central idea behind object-orien ted design? Are there special applications for which object-oriented program ming is particularly suited? Which object-oriented language should be used? There is no simple answer to these questions. Although object-oriented programming was invented more than twenty years ago, we still cannot claim that we know everything about this programming technique. Many new con cepts have been developed during the past decade, and new applications and implications of object-oriented programming are constantly being discovered. This book can only try to explain the nature of object-oriented program ming in as much detail as possible. It should serve three purposes. First, it is intended as an introduction to the basic concepts of object-oriented program ming. Second, the book describes the concept of prototypes and explains why and how they can improve the way in which object-oriented programs are developed. Third, it introduces the programming language Omega, an object oriented language that was designed with easy, safe and efficient software development in mind.

Embedded Systems Circuits and Programming
During the development of an engineered product, developers often need to create an embedded system—a prototype—that demonstrates the operation/function of the device and proves its viability. Offering practical tools for the development and prototyping phases, Embedded Systems Circuits and Programming provides a tutorial on microcontroller programming and the basics of embedded design. The book focuses on several development tools and resources:Standard and off-the-shelf components, such as input/output devices, integrated circuits, motors, and programmable microcontrollersThe implementation of circuit prototypes via breadboards, the in-house fabrication of test-time printed circuit boards (PCBs), and the finalization by the manufactured boardElectronic design programs and software utilities for creating PCBsSample circuits that can be used as part of the targeted embedded systemThe selection and programming of microcontrollers in the circuit For those working in electrical, electronic, computer, and software engineering, this hands-on guide helps you successfully develop systems and boards that contain digital and analog components and controls. The text includes easy-to-follow sample circuits and their corresponding programs, enabling you to use them in your own work. For critical circuits, the authors provide tested PCB files.

Objektorientierte Software in der kommerziellen Anwendung
Mit dem objektorientierten Paradigma wird in der Datenverarbeitung ein Denkansatz verfolgt, der die DV-Lösungen als Abbild der realen Welt implementiert, anstatt diese auf theoretischen und technischen Regelsätzen aufzubauen.Das Buch stellt die verschiedenen objektorientierten Techniken klar und praxisbezogen dar.Neben einer Gesamtschau aller Aspekte der Objektorientierung werden auch die einzelnen, heute noch getrennt existierenden Teilbereiche beschrieben. Speziell für die Lösung kommerzieller Aufgaben stellt der Autor eine integrierte objektorientierte Software-Entwicklungsumgebung vor.

Software Engineering Best Practices
Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.Proven techniques for software engineering successThis in-depth volume examines software engineering topics that are not covered elsewhere: the question of why software engineering has developed more than 2,500 programming languages; problems with traditional definitions of software quality; and problems with common metrics, "lines of code," and "cost per defect" that violate standard economic assumptions. The book notes that a majority of "new" projects are actually replacements for legacy applications, illustrating that data mining for lost requirements should be a standard practice. Difficult social engineering issues are also covered, such as how to minimize harm from layoffs and downsizing.Software Engineering Best Practices explains how to effectively plan, size, schedule, and manage software projects of all types, using solid engineering procedures. It details proven methods, from initial requirements through 20 years of maintenance. Portions of the book have been extensively reviewed by key engineers from top companies, including IBM, Microsoft, Unisys, and Sony.Manage Agile, hierarchical, matrix, and virtual software development teamsOptimize software quality using JAD, OFD, TSP, static analysis, inspections, and other methods with proven success recordsUse high-speed functional metrics to assess productivity and quality levelsPlan optimal organization, from small teams through more than 1,000 personnel
